If I move slowly through this task   I will earn some rest   If I move quickly and surely   I will do my best      I'm sad to see things change   For you who were such good friends   One should walk the way one needs   And when the way is crooked one bends   Out that evening it makes me sick to think   You put your hands up as if to say   I won't be part of what you do   Life ain't war least not today      If I move slowly through this task   I will earn some rest   If I move quickly and surely   I will do my best      This is how it would be   When we would meet often to see   How easy things could be made   And still go down unanxiously   Once you were chased down the street by blacks   Screaming about how cool it is   To be black and you ducked away   It will never be as cool as this      If I move slowly through this task   I will earn some rest   If I move quickly and surely   I will do my best      Then it was needed to become rough   In order not to be inhuman   Uncanny unable and unwilling   To think about not having children
